Thanks Spice! And I do think the algos kill the creativity a little these days, in that they seem to favour people staying in a very narrow lane, which is definitely not what I want to do! I just love music.. all sorts and so I'll probably end up with a mix of genres anyway ? I don't have many followers on Spotify yet and this was only my first song, so at this stage it doesn't matter too much! Haha.. Love that about yours going for $2K, that's epic! Well done ?

I am aware of some technical flaws in the mix, but you know what, I do take some comfort hearing that ?

I can, although I had to mix the entire thing in headphones, so I'm not happy with the mix and it's probably not a popular genre, but I'll PM you with a link anyway ?

Love that! Can't wait to listen to it ?

It was!it's not much for most people and I get that, but it's the first track that I released so it was pretty novel hearing it on the radio ?

There really needs to be a ❤️ emoji available for this post, a like doesn't quite cut it ? That would've been so cool!

Haha... Yeah mostly me neither as well ?

Not a deal: Just had one of my tracks played on the radio tonight for the first time, so buzzing a little ? Edit: Adding links (still semi reluctantly!) to the track on the various platforms after a few people requested to hear it ? https://linktr.ee/disorderlyconductor

Ended up going for: VCL-864U VCL-373 VCL-4 Flywheel I quite like them all, especially the first 3. I have lots of tapes and Flywheel is just another flavour / option to have. 373 surprised me and does something really cool with hats and cymbals. and 864 can get pretty punchy with snappy transients and VCL-4 works great on vocals and adds some nice warmth. Easily worth the price of admission. The sale is still on too ?

They normally seem pretty good with pricing mistakes and honoring them. I've never seen, or heard of them not doing that and providing the goods. It's quite possible they have, but it doesn't seem the norm, so I wouldn't be surprised at all if you got the bundle at that price.

You sure do!! Some pricing errors barely last half an hour.. sometimes you might not even have chance to do a full demo! ?

Looks like the gig is up Mibby... I'm not sure what their normal loyalty offers are in their common sales, but it did seem like a good price. In many cases waiting is not always a good option if it's something you want!

I also watched this one before as well and he goes quite deep into the options and examples too:

That makes total sense and thanks for sharing the video too. I just watched this one now. Will be very interesting to hear how you find it in comparison to Trackspacer. Do you find their plugins heavy on the CPU?

I was surprised at that one as well. I had very little interest until that too!

Thanks Jan, I'm hearing that a lot. I had thought I might get Trackspacer at some stage, but I'd been waiting for it to go on sale. But when it finally did, I'd just found out about SmartComp instead.

So many great plugins. I have the Anthology bundle and some of the effects are simply awesome.

They seem to do a pretty decent loyalty discount. Not sure if it increases with the more you have though, or whether it's just a set loyalty, but it's still nice to see. What particular functionality are you looking for from SmartComp?

I reckon there are probably quite a lot of people that were hoping the same!

Sonible Smart Comp 2 ($61.98 @ AudioDeluxe) with free Melda Transient shaper plugin https://www.audiodeluxe.com/products/audio-plugins/sonible-smartcomp-2 Check your discount directly on Sonible first. Showing $35 for me ? A lot of people seem to say it's better than Trackspacer.

Good news.. it's back in stock.. bad news... it's now $62.50!

Oh that sucks, it didn't last long then! I wonder if it will become available again or whether that's it now..
